found: Communication with Josh Mugler, Curator of Islamic Manuscripts, HMML, on March 10, 2021("Possibly the Maḥmūd al-Kurdī who taught in Damascus and died in 1663 or 1664 (see el-Rouayheb, Opening the Gate of Verification), but this al-Kurdī wrote both versions of this commentary in Medina in 1609 and 1616, so he should be associated with that city, not Damascus.")
